All You Need to Know about Rebound Sex

Sex is, on most occasions, a good thing. However, the same cannot always be said of rebound sex. This is a situation where you have either dumped or been dumped by someone you were dating. Sex that follows a break up doesn’t necessarily have to make you feel good. Here are some pros and cons of rebound sex.

Feel good: Rebound sex is possibly the best thing you can do to feel good about yourself. It assures you that you are still desired by people, boosting your self confidence. This is something you need if you were dumped in your last relationship.

Potential: Rebound sex gives you the chance to find a new love to replace the old. You might discover that the guy you took to bed isn’t that bad after all, sparking off a new romance. Since you are fresh out of a relationship, you have a better idea of what you want and don’t.

No strings attached: Rebound sex does not come with any strings attached. Since you may be pissed off with men, you wouldn’t care if he was satisfied. You had great sex.

Be gentle: You may be able to detach your emotions, but what if the guy thinks you are interested in him and wants to take things further? You may end up breaking someone’s heart.

Be safe: You may not know how many partners he may have been with. Since you may choose to rebound with an unknown partner, the chances of contracting an infection are high. Take adequate precautions.

Get out of your comfort zone: This new guy isn’t going to judge you. Heck, you are probably not going to see much of him in a couple of weeks. So you can try out a new position or simply pleasure each other mutually without being judged.

Wear sexy lingerie: Your rebound guy may just end up being a one night stand. But make it something worth remembering for him too. If you think you’re going to get laid that night, try wearing sexy lingerie and some nice perfume. He’ll think of you as a sensuous woman he was with.

Be sure you don’t want to go back to your ex: Opt for rebound sex only if you’re sure you don’t want to go back to your ex-boyfriend. Going back to an old relationship after a fling can make things awkward for both of you.

Don’t do it with a random guy: Don’t jump into the sack with the first guy that uses a pick up line on you at a bar. Pick a guy you’re remotely familiar with- like someone who goes to the same gym as you or someone in your neighbourhood.
